PVC Shoulder External Rotation

BeginnerBodyweight

This drill targets the rotator cuff by using a PVC pipe to assist external rotation of one shoulder at a time. The light leverage lets you ease into range safely, which makes it useful for warming up or shoulder rehab.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Stand upright with feet about shoulder width apart.

  2. 2

    Take the pipe in your right hand and bring it up and over the back of your right shoulder, upper arm level with your shoulders.

  3. 3

    Grip the lower end of the pipe with your left hand using an overhand grip.

  4. 4

    Pull up gently with your left hand, rotating the right shoulder back until you feel an easy stretch.

  5. 5

    Hold for 15 to 30 seconds, then swap sides.
